Abstract

How does transformation occur in living systems? How do they manage to transform themselves in a direct, fast, safe and extremely energy efficient manner? What principles do they follow? And what can we learn about governing transformation as investors?
Coming from a rather medical standpoint, I strongly emphasize the ultimate need to have a clear understanding of healthy, living systems. Only then will we have the ability to govern the necessary radical transformations in economy, society and politics instead of only managing symptoms. It is not news that our traditional, reductionist, closed-system assumptions have led us into the muddle-headedness we experience today. Unfortunately, the same is true for our concepts of change and transformation. Learning from living systems, we learn how desperately wrong our current transformation models are: nature is able to undergo radical transformations, erasing its previous identity completely and rebuilding a new identity directly. Without dying. Without changing its genes. The cell has the information needed to actively transform itself into a radical new “Y.1” prototype.
The difficult point is that in nature there are no hybrid or dual solutions—it is either-or. You must DECIDE. If we truly seek to transform our world into a sustainable, evolutionary system through our investment strategy, we must be prepared to make brutal decisions. This article shall provide the Y.1 information code necessary for governing this transformation directly, fast, safe and efficiently. It also offers a new and comprehensive framework for positive impact investors, (real) green growth and sustainable finance.
By doing so, the gap between people, planet and profit is vanished. Our soul will be able to return and inspire our actions, endowing a feeling of grace and pleasure, while building a truly evolutionary and meaningful economy.
